Review: Smooth paved trail that runs all the way into Alabama. Get the road bike out unless you only plan to use this one to access the Silver Comet Side trails which are singletrack.

Review: not a mtb trail. get ur road bike out.

Review: Although the silver comet is paved there are many short i guess you could say single track trails that spin off of it just walk to the end of them before you ride them you might end up in a almost happened to me.lol. The spin of trails a very diverse some are covered in gravel, some in roots, some are just dirt, some are steep some are flat. very diverse you just have to find them.

Review: Good beginner trail to get some good miles under your belt. Traveling west there seems to be a slight incline, especially from Cedartown to Alabama.

Review: Nice paved trail to get some cardio in.

Review: On my computer, it marked 67 mi. long from Alabama all the way to Mark 0.0 on Mavel Rd. It was quite an experience... A friend drove the three of Us all the way to Esom Hill Trail head, where we went .3 mile to the Alabama border and off we went our merry way to Atlanta... I can't say we didn't had fun, but at places we really wanted to give up! But once we got to the end, boy, was it worth IT!!!

Review: While some of this track is flat and paved, it is a excilent trail. It runs from Smyrna, GA all the way to Alabama. it is 63 miles long. Along the way you will see some beautiful sights. Many bridge crossings. At one point, the trail goes through a huge tunnel under a mountain. There are plenty of single tracks and loops along the sides of the trail. BEWARE: This trail is for walking a running too, so watch out for children. The trail is great for just riding long distances. Enjoy the ride, it is very peaceful and beautiful.

Review: Love using this trail with the family. We have a 2-year-old daugther that loves to put on her helmet and sit on her baby-chair on the back of the bike to enjoy the Ride. It's a good thing to have all those stores along the way, so we can get her some ice-cream in this crazy hot summer!!! Planning on doing the whole 9 yards (more like 60 mi. :-) late in Sept. So far we've done just few miles from mark 0.

Review: This is a great trail to see what you are really made of. Make sure that you get there as easly as possible in order to avoid suffering a heat stroke. Bring pleanty of water, and make sure that you have a friend that could come and pick you up in Alabama if you don't have enough energy to go back.

Review: We slapped some city slicks on our mountain bikes and started at the Nickajack School trailhead. The path is very smooth and flat, but it is very crowded at nearly all times. We rode 20 miles out to the Dallas trailhead in Paulding County, and it was a nice quick paced ride that gave us an awesome workout. Once you get about 5 miles away from Smyrna, the crowd thins considerably and you can work on your pace and spin. There are a lot of little shops now along the path that cater directly to trail users. In Paulding County you have a real sense of isolation as the trail is lined on both sides with thick forest at times. There's a lot of new development along the trail too, so you get to smell cut timber and new landscaping. The scenery all along the path is very nice and pleasant. This is an awesome trail to get some safe road-work in. I'm calling this an epic, because we did 40 miles total, which is epic in my book.

Review: One thing that I always thought would be nice to do with the trail is to make it available to scooter riders during weekday commuting hours (7-9 A.M. 5-7 P.M.). A lot of people would love to have the opportunity to commute to their place of work without having to deal with metro-Atlanta traffic. I think that so long as the scooters don't pollute it should be perfectly fine to use the trail instead of the roadways with an electric scooter. I would also personally love to ride my Vespa through the area during the night time but somehow I think that the police would frown on such a practice.

Review: Unless you're a roadie, this trail lacks the essentials-dirt, roots, mud, etc. What also sucks about this trail is my buddy's car got broken into in the parking lot. If you see anyone riding the trail in any European style cylcling jerseys, this rider is a thief! Check his rear pockets for a stolen wallet and cd player, too!

Review: the trail is straight and every know and then you'll make a few turns but it does get tiring.is not very challenging

Similar Trail: Don't know this is really the only one I have been on.

Review: As a tax payer I feel that others should be able to enjoy the trail as they choose. Horse back riding is very enjoyable and indiviuals should be allowed to ride on the trail. No one has given any good reasons as to why horseback riding is prohibited.

Similar Trail: That Cobb County get with the program and stop discriminating against other types of recreation.

Review: It was a very good run for me family. We describe the trail as a magical rainbow for all to ride upon. When we reached the parking lot we found the toll(potogold) and we had a good time.

Review: i LOVE this trail. its especially nice in the summer with my family. not very challenging, but the kids like it that way.

Review: This was the best trail I've ever been on I like the smooth path trail and the fact that you don't have to do a lot of climbing. I will definatly go on this trail again sometime soon.

Review: Much more of the trail is now paved and with it more traffic . This makes it much more dangerous for bike training rides . People with dogs and long leashes , groups of people who cover both lanes as if they are the only ones in the world and worse of all the bikers who are just not aware of anything . I snapped part of my pelvis off on a training run when a kid just turned in front of me . She never looked . The silver comet trail is now more trouble than riding on the roads in Atlanta . After talking to the Paulding county Marshall . I find people are breaking bones every week do to the same sort of thing . And as far as letting horses ride the trail ..NEVER !! Horse people seem to think that horse feces are a gift to the world and as a rule never clean them off a trail . And rides I have on shared trails leads to stinking mess with my wheels throwing the manure all over me and everything else . Any shared trails are covered with the stuff . I see horses tied near streams in violation of regulations that prohibit it . ( their waste contaminates the water )

Review: Not to review the trail, but I feel for you guys who run over stupid kids (thanks to stupider parents), rollerbladers w/ headphones (another peeve of mine (along with joggers, of course), I just have one thing to say to the guy who got broken into: lessons are often learned the hard way; if you have something of any value, or something that can be perceived as having value, don't be a bonehead and leave it out, in an unattended vehicle. Duh. Sorry dude, you were asking for that one. Better thinking next time!

Review: A message for the horse lover - When you guys start cleaning up after your animals, or devise some kind of catch bucket for the manure, I will cease to have any problems with your use of the trails. But when I see the messes that are created by horses, it really makes me lose respect for you as a recreational user.

Review: Alternate Directions: take 285 north to south atlanta rd. make a left on south atlanta rd. until you get to concord rd .make a left on concord rd.and go all the way down past south cobb dr..Trail is about 1 mile down on the right. smoothe trail, not hard at all flat, goes all the way to Alabama

Review: This trail is smooth and wide and paved. Great for families and good excerise but not much challange. Good view of wildlife, but no hills or trails

Review: The Silver Comet Trail is now complete as far as Rockmart, GA, and will extend before long to meet with the Chief Ladiga Trail in Alabama. When complete, one will be able to ride from Smyrna, GA to Anniston, AL. Right now, it is about 38 miles in length, making a full comet pull a nice 76 mile round trip. Hint for mounties, leave your knobbies at home. This is a trail for high pressure slicks. I gave it a 5 for aerobic level, as you can get anearobic if you like by charging up some of the 3 to 6 mile long 2% grades as fast as you can. You wont know you've been climbing until you hack up a lung!
